PRP Therapy (Platelet-Rich Plasma)

PRP therapy is a regenerative treatment that uses your body’s own healing mechanisms to support tissue repair, skin quality, and overall regeneration. By concentrating growth factors found naturally in your blood, PRP therapy is designed to stimulate renewal in a safe, biocompatible way.

At Harley Private Dental, PRP therapy is delivered under medical supervision by Dr Isran, ensuring a clinically appropriate, evidence-informed approach.

What is PRP therapy?

PRP stands for Platelet-Rich Plasma. It is created by taking a small sample of your blood and processing it to concentrate platelets and growth factors that play a role in healing and regeneration.

Once prepared, the PRP is carefully reintroduced into targeted areas to support:

  • Tissue repair
  • Collagen stimulation
  • Improved skin quality
  • Natural regenerative processes

Because PRP is derived from your own blood, it is considered a highly biocompatible treatment.

How PRP works

Platelets contain growth factors that help regulate healing and regeneration. When concentrated and applied to specific areas, PRP may help to:

  • Encourage cell renewal
  • Improve skin texture and tone
  • Support tissue quality and resilience
  • Enhance the body’s natural repair response

PRP does not add volume or alter facial structure. Its role is regenerative rather than cosmetic.

What can PRP therapy be used for?

PRP therapy may be used to support:

  • Skin rejuvenation and quality
  • Fine lines and early signs of ageing
  • Under-eye skin quality
  • Overall skin texture and vitality

Your clinician will advise whether PRP is suitable for your concerns or whether alternative regenerative treatments may be more appropriate.

Who is suitable for PRP therapy?

PRP therapy may be suitable if you:

  • Prefer treatments using your body’s own biological processes
  • Want to improve skin quality without synthetic fillers
  • Are seeking subtle, progressive results
  • Value doctor-led, regenerative treatments

Suitability is assessed during consultation, including medical history and individual goals.

What does the treatment involve?

  1. Consultation and assessment
    Your concerns, goals, and medical history are reviewed.
  2. Blood collection
    A small blood sample is taken, similar to a routine blood test.
  3. PRP preparation
    The sample is processed to isolate platelet-rich plasma.
  4. PRP application
    The PRP is carefully introduced into the treatment area.
  5. Aftercare guidance
    Clear instructions are provided to support healing and results.

The procedure is typically well tolerated and completed within a single appointment.

What results can I expect?

PRP therapy is designed to support gradual, natural improvement rather than immediate change. Patients may notice:

  • Improved skin texture and quality
  • Enhanced hydration and tone
  • Healthier-looking skin over time

Results develop progressively as the skin responds to regenerative stimulation. Individual outcomes vary.

PRP therapy vs other treatments

PRP differs from other aesthetic treatments in key ways:

  • Not a filler – it does not add volume
  • Not a toxin – it does not affect muscle movement
  • Biological – uses your own blood-derived components

Your clinician will explain whether PRP, skin boosters, polynucleotides, or alternative treatments are most suitable for you.

Safety and aftercare

PRP therapy is carried out by a licensed UK GP using sterile, clinically approved systems.

Aftercare guidance includes:

  • What to expect following treatment
  • How to care for the treated area
  • When to resume normal activities
  • When to contact the clinic if needed

Patient safety, informed consent, and appropriate follow-up are central to our care.

Is PRP therapy right for me?

PRP therapy is one of several regenerative options available. A consultation allows us to assess suitability, explain benefits and limitations, and ensure treatment aligns with your expectations and goals.

Personalised care starts here

A consultation gives us time to understand your needs, explain your options clearly, and plan care that’s right for you.

Spread the cost of your treatment

We offer finance options through Chrysalis Finance to help make treatment costs more manageable. This allows eligible patients to spread the cost of treatment over time with clear, structured repayments. Finance is available at a representative 14.9% APR, subject to status and approval.

How the finance calculator works

Our finance calculator provides an indicative example of how treatment costs may be spread into monthly payments based on a 14.9% APR. Simply enter the estimated treatment cost and select a repayment term to view a guide price. Figures shown are for illustration only. Final repayment amounts will be confirmed following consultation and finance approval.

Using the calculator does not commit you to treatment or finance. It is designed to help you understand your options clearly, without pressure. Full details, including repayment terms and eligibility, will always be explained before you proceed.

Frequently asked questions

Practical guidance to help you understand our care, treatments, and what to expect.

Is PRP therapy safe?

PRP uses your own blood, making it highly biocompatible. When performed by a qualified medical professional under sterile conditions, it is considered safe.

How many PRP sessions are needed?

Treatment plans vary depending on the area treated and individual response. This will be discussed during your consultation.

Is there downtime after PRP treatment?

Most patients experience minimal downtime. Mild redness or swelling may occur and usually settles quickly.

When will I see results?

PRP works gradually. Improvements typically develop over several weeks as the skin responds to regenerative stimulation.
